>> I need to import one of the view from oracle to Access through ODBC
I do not understand the base question asked by OP. May be we using different terminologies.
Why would one "import" an oracle view?
In oracle, view is just a stored query. So you are running a query to extract the data.
Second, ODBC is just a link between two databases ( in this case an oracle and Access database). Since MS-ACCESS is the data requestor,
all you need to do is create a job(macro in MS terms?) within access to execute a local call to an ACCESS procedure/query that uses an ODBC link to talk to oracle. I am not into MS-ACCESS, so i have no idea how write a procedure in VBA or whatever the scripting is used.
Some microsoft forum should help.
But wait:
Seems you can just use a LINKED table in ACCESS.
Just looked into ACCESS help( that come along with the installation) and more options are listed in the same documentation.

Create a macro.
How?

Do one of the following:
To import, export, or link data between the current Microsoft Access database and another database, click TransferDatabase in the action list of a blank action row.

To import, export, or link data between the current Access database and a spreadsheet file, click TransferSpreadsheet in the action list of a blank action row.

To import, export, or link data between the current Access database and a text file, click TransferText in the action list of a blank action row.

Set the action arguments.


Click Save to save the macro.


Run the macro.
How?
